Double bed jacquard variations

I created a DBJ cheat sheet based on a handout I used to have, not sure who did it originally. I've added two of my own versions - reversible and vertical lined backing. These were all done on the SK840/SRP60N, so I cannot produce the reversible version, as Silver machines do not pre-select for the next row. There are some pictures of a previous experiment with reversible backing here and here.

Two-row backing


Front


Back

Two-row backing tends to elongate the pattern somewhat, so you might have to adjust your pattern to compensate.

One-row backing


Front


Back

Plain backing


Front


Back

Bird's eye backing


Front

Vertical striped backing


Front - went a bit wrong and dropped some stitches


Back

Anatomy of a carriage - main bed and ribber

A - tension dial. Higher numbers = looser stitches
B - Normal/Hold - to select partial knitting
D - cam buttons - tuck, slip, fair-isle etc
E - main yarn feeder
G - colour change lever. When raised, will activate colour changer
H - pile knitting lever
I - carriage disengage. Will unlock ribber carriage from main carriage
J - Normal/Hold - to select partial knitting
K - tension dial. Higher numbers = looser stitches
L - Slip levers. Carriage will slip stitches in that direction, if lever set to 0. Used for circular knitting.
Z - electronic cable connection (obscured by handle)

Carriage shown is an SK840 electronic machine, and SRP60N ribber
